<br/><br/> This article reviews theoretically grounded empirical studies on committees in the European Union by focusing on research published from the late 1990s onwards.

We examine research questions, theoretical approaches, design, and the main empirical findings. The conclusions provide our critical remarks and suggestions for further research
